| Description of the problem | The rear axle seal on my nissan titan was leaking oil on the rear brakes and the fluid level was extremely low. Not sure how often this failure occurs, but now that i am aware of rear axle seal leak problems i will monitor for the failure. The local nissan dealership replaced a bearing, spacer, and rear oil seal. After researching nissan titan rear axle seal leaks there appears to be a trend of rear axle seal failures. The problem needs to be addressed by the manufacture before serious accidents occur. |
